King Charles I - Trafalgar Square London, UK. - Equestrian Statues on Waymarking.com

This statue also has a cut benchmark on it.


This spot serves as the centre of London for the purposes of measuring distances. (But also see Cornhill Standard.) Also, supposedly, the street numbering convention is that the low numbers in a street should be at the end closest to this spot - a rule much observed in the breach. However, key 'London' into Google Maps and the pin is not plonked here. It lands on The Strand, just north of Waterloo Bridge, on number 355, a Starbucks. No comment. 2015 correction: Google Maps have discovered the centre of London.
